If I could source batteries for both, then I agree. The poly battery is what's making things "difficult" to continue with.

My beloved mojo/poly is slowly failing on me (battery issues and I'm down to 1 working 3.5mm port). It's time to think about moving on. What are people opting for as a replacement for this combo?

Android also.

Those are the Chinese version, not International, right?

oh yeah, you may be right. My bad. EDIT: In fact same y split as the 8-core balanced. https://nobleaudio.com/en/shop/accessories/

From Noble. It's their 8-Core cable, I believe.

http://www.hifiheadphones.co.uk/ stock Shanling kit, no idea if they are an authorised dealer or not.

Is the M6 available form EU distributor yet?

Or get Matt from Forza Audio Works to make you one. https://forzaaudioworks.com/en/product.php?id_product=98 I have both from the links I posted and can recommend them both.

take a look at something like this... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shanling-L2-Type-C-to-Micro-USB-Audio-Decoding-Upgrade-Cable/182642897787?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

wow, Noble airpods?

I don't think there is a consensus but for me Comply T-500 work best in my ear canals for comfort and isolation. I tried the Comply SmartCore but they only come in "medium", I really need a large.

Quickplayer only lists and plays playlists.

Nah, a day off in late summer is far more useful to me than a day off in the depths of winter.

I live and work in Scotland and was off for the Bank Holiday. Like the original post, you can't apply sweeping generalisations to Bank Holidays. e.g. Scotland has a holiday on 2nd January, yet I have to work on the 2nd. Go figure. (no pun intended)

Yes, same issue with P20 Pro, was working fine until the new f/w then it broke. Switched to a Shanling UP2 and have no issues.

The reason I dumped my BTR3 in favour of UP2 is because a firmware update actually broke functionality for my BTR3/Phone. So even when they try and improve things with an update they can sometimes get worse. (This applies to all manufacturers).

Until they release an App, you can't. I would assume that it doesn't have the latest 1.4 update though, and I don't think there would be any harm in trying to update to that level.

I may have missed the announcement but the 8 core cable is now on the website, my order has been placed...

I had a similar experience with the AK120, but I soon used it as a digital transport only and paired it with (first) the Chord Hugo and then the Chord Mojo. This was a good set up, but when 400Gb SD cards dropped and I was able to fit all my music on one card it was a no brainer to add Poly to...

Any further info on a release date? I'm wondering if I can sneak in an order before my holiday... actually I'll be adding a t-shirt to the order and I'd reeeeeally like to be wearing that on holiday... :wink:

Interestingly I have the same phone and have no issues with HWA on the UP2 (I did have that issue on the BTR3 however).

Yeah, just reading up on the M0 now. Definitely not something I need (as I have Mojo/Poly as my DAP) but I can see the point in the original question.

Well... can I stream Tidal from the M0? Or is it just an audio player? All I need from the UP2 is to allow me to stream from my phone. EDIT: Just checked Amazon and the M0 is almost twice the price I paid for the UP2.
